<R26><R26> Would lifting the conveyor to where you can access the brain make this legal? I saw this post and noticed the conveyor was flat on the brain so I just wanted to make sure. https://www.robotevents.com/V5RC/2024-2025/QA/2258

This picture is a proposed solution by my team, the brain power button is obviously accessible and not obscure. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1njOUh0-AhPgJ0J8SPLNhlL9EK4JzzDoP/view?usp=drivesdk

It is impossible to issue a blanket answer beyond what is written in the Game Manual and Q&A 2258 that encompasses all possible situations based on a snapshot description of a hypothetical Robot or mechanism.

The final determination of whether a specific Robot meets the Robot rules can only be made by the Head Referee at an event, with consideration of the safety of the design.
